Carnot Cycle

	A	B	C
1	Orange Boxes		Can be changed to alter the fluid properties
2	Green Boxes		Can be changed to alter the nature of the thermal processes
3	Red Boxes		Do not change. They are performing the calculations to run the model

26			Equation will break down if it goes too high, this is a precision issue with Sheets. Just dial value back down a little to get an approximation
